    So... If he were a domestic born sociopath, his greed would be acceptable? Or if he spread the wealth with Americans, his foreign crimes and wealth extraction would be fine?

    Don't bring nationalism into the class war. If you haven't noticed, Americas most destructive enemies are domestic born and bred. The entire overarching goal should be to improve the lives of everyone, everywhere — "a rising tide lifts all boats" — instead of letting some nations to extract and hoard wealth from "others", or allow "others" to be exploited for their benefit. If you believe otherwise, then the main difference between you and the sociopathic parasites of the Epstein class is who you perceive to be the "others"...

    No, there is no excuse for trash like him. But if you can weaponize the hatred of the ignorant to help your cause, you should.

    At the expense of immigrants that aren't obscenely wealthy? How does that make anything better? There are endless other ways to call out this garbage. Pick one that doesn't needlessly harm those that are already hurting.

    Yeah... you just proved you're closer to an authoritarian tankie sociopath than you are to giving a shit about the working class.

    The goal should be to enlighten the ignorant. Not fucking "weaponise" them, you donut. The whole problem is that they've been "weaponised" by capital. You aren't gonna be able to control mental illness and indoctrination, wannabe Murdoch.

    You're being downvoted, and I just wanted to let you know I agree with you completely. It's the billionaire class that's the problem, not their nationality. It's a worldwide problem, not just an American one, because they export their bullshit to whatever country they choose (e.g. Musk in Germany). Borders no longer matter for these people, they can move wherever they want, buy politicians in every country they want.

    It's a global class war.
